Unconventional Taming

In a world where beast-taming defines the very fabric of society, nearly anything can be bound as a companion creature. From living animals and ancient plants to raw elemental forces, spectral entities, and advanced machinery, the possibilities are boundless. Legendary beings such as the nine-tailed flame fox, the tree of life, the thunder cloud fairy, the skeleton lord, the robotic fleet maiden, and even antique blades that have cultivated their own spirits serve as bonded beasts. The humans who forge contracts with these extraordinary creatures, nurturing and commanding them, are revered as tamers. Shi Yu, a dedicated mythologist and archaeologist, unexpectedly finds himself transmigrated into this wondrous realm. Stripped of his familiar surroundings, he must adapt to a society built entirely around the art of taming. Yet, rather than simply conforming to the established traditions of this world, he leverages his academic expertise in myths and ancient history to uncover its deepest secrets. Driven by the desire to piece together a missing past and unearth a forgotten legend, Shi Yu sets forth on a remarkable journey of unconventional taming that defies everything the world believes it knows.
